Description
The Southbend HDO-12-316L is a compact, 12-inch outdoor gas countertop hotplate engineered to keep high-volume service moving. Two open burners deliver a combined 66,000 BTU, letting crews sear proteins, boil stock, or sauté sides with speed and control. Its small footprint helps maximize limited outdoor counter space without sacrificing output.
Built with 316L stainless steel, this unit stands up to demanding outdoor environments while presenting a clean, professional look on patios, pop-up stations, and catered lines. Porcelain-coated cast iron grates support heavy cookware and promote even heating, and simple manual controls make operation intuitive for rotating staff.
For faster cleanup and smoother turnarounds, the integrated crumb tray captures debris between tickets. Use it to expand an outdoor cookline, add an on-demand sauté station for events, or bolster backup capacity during peak service. Qualifies for Southbend’s Service First™ Program.
